In the middle of last month, WeChat released the official version of Android WeChat 8.0.48.
In the new version, WeChat brings features such as the ability to edit videos before sending them, optimize the mass sending experience, and add new features such as video account support for screen casting.
After a lapse of about three weeks, the WeChat team finally brought the beta version of Android WeChat 8.0.49.
If you want to try it first, reply to the keyword "WeChat" in the background of the official account Qi Jam to get the download link.
Next, let's take a look at the Android WeChat 8.0.49 beta version, what are the new changes.
Added a special area for receiving red envelope covers
When it comes to red envelope covers, users have always needed to search and collect them, and the process is still very troublesome.
And the red envelope without a cover always feels almost meaningless when it is sent out, after all, the sense of ritual is very important in life.
In the new version of WeChat, the WeChat team finally brought the "Red Envelope Cover Zone".
First of all, open any dialog box and click "Red Envelope" - "Red Envelope Cover" - "Receive Cover" in the upper right corner.
After entering, you can see all the red envelope covers, which can be claimed for free.
As you can see, the red packet cover area contains a variety of very creative covers.
The official also listed the red envelope covers of important festivals such as the Spring Festival and the Lantern Festival.
In this way, we no longer have to search for red packet covers everywhere, which is more convenient.
The official account interface has been revised
Immediately afterwards, the official account interface also ushered in a wave of major revisions.
First of all, WeChat has optimized the bottom of the official account article.
Students who have updated to the 8.0.49 beta version will find that the buttons such as like, share, and favorite at the bottom of the article will not slide with the article when they see this article.
In other words, these features are pinned to the bottom.
Subsequently, the name of the official account was moved from the top to the lower left corner.
And the original favorite button was replaced with a comment button.
In addition to "Likes" and "Watching", "Retweets" and "Comments" are now also displayed in new numbers.
All in all, the official account reading page is more user-friendly.
However, after testing, it was found that the function has not been fully covered, and only some WeChat users can use it at present.
Let's see if you've been tested internally.
Added a new display score for the Mini Program
Students who often use Mini Programs should find that the new version of WeChat has also optimized the rating of Mini Programs.
That is, when you open the applet, you will find that the score is directly displayed in the upper right corner, which is clear at a glance.
This change can help users quickly understand the reputation of the Mini Program, and then decide whether it is worth using.
In addition to Android WeChat, PC WeChat has also recently ushered in an update, bringing several new features.
First of all, it is a new function of "text messages can be enlarged and read".
Now, the computer can also enlarge and read the text messages received or sent just like on the mobile phone.
It's also very easy to use, after upgrading your PC WeChat to the latest version, just right-click on the text message you received or sent, and you can select the "Enlarge Reading" button.
After clicking, the text message will be displayed in the form of a separate pop-up window, similar to the effect of double-click messages in WeChat on mobile phones.
In addition, this function can also set shortcut keys.
By default, you can hold down the Ctrl key and click on a text message to zoom in, and press the Esc key to cancel the enlargement.
In addition, there is also a new icon for downloading content in the upper right corner of the PC WeChat browser, click the icon to see your recent downloads.
This function facilitates the unified management of the user's downloaded files.
The above are some of the recent new trends in WeChat.
What do you think of these changes?
